Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons dried parsley
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• ground black pepper to taste
• ½ cup chopped green bell pepper
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• ¾ cup dry bread crumbs
• 2 (6.5 ounce) cans minced clams, drained
• 2 tablespoons Italian-style seasoning
• 20 fresh mushrooms, stems removed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 2

Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Step 3

Arrange mushroom caps hollow side up in the baking dish.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, mix together minced clams, garlic, Parmesan cheese, onion, bread crumbs, green bell pepper, parsley, Italian-style seasoning and black pepper. Slowly stir in approximately 1/2 the butter, enough to make the mixture slightly moist.

Step 5

Generously fill the mushroom caps with the clam mixture. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Drizzle with remaining butter.
